No. F:BoS didn't kill the franchise so a possible MMO fail also won't do it.

What it can kill is more MMO TES games and also can remind others not to use the money from singleplayer success in nonsingleplayer genre.

And unlike some others I won't cry if it turns into a disaster as I won't be playing it. There are many existing and upcoming singleplayer games without Bethesda (c)(TM) endless respawning crap covered by fetch grind boredom.
